Creatively decorate your yard with your own hands

You can, of course, call a landscape designer, hire workers to bring the yard into proper shape. But we often do not trust someone else's taste and decorate our yard with our own hands. First, it is much cheaper, and secondly, there is the possibility of self-expression and the use of their own creative potential, and thirdly - it's interesting and exciting!

Original vertical beds

The first thing we do when decorating our yard with our own hands is, of course, determining the places for flower beds, beds with greens and vegetables, and berry berries. But, unfortunately, it is not always possible to allocate a lot of land for vegetation: you still have to manage to break a playground, find a place for an artificial water reservoir, stick a summerhouse for summer tea and ... Yes, what else do you want to place in the yard! A real find will be in this case vertical beds. They can be made with wooden boxes filled with a substrate and installed one on the other steps. And you can make them from metal tanks, drill holes in the sides for plants. But if you want to save more, we decorate our yard with our own hands using vertical beds made of large bags intended for construction debris. The bright color of these bags is pleasing to the eye even before the plants completely weave them. Greens can now be planted a dozen times more, weeding will take very little time, and it will not be necessary to bend down when doing any work on vegetation care. Only care should be taken of the filler bags: for each type of crop should be selected a special composition of soil soil , which added organic and mineral fertilizers.

We decorate our yard with our own hands, for example - creative chess

No matter how much we want to use every piece of land with profit, but also without a place intended to enter the car or play children in the ball, the yard can not do without. Therefore, some sites still have to spread paving slab. And here you can come up with a stunning idea! We decorate our yard with our own hands, laying out the tiles in the form of a giant chessboard! While children play the ball, it's just a sports field. When the car arrives to the garage - this is the place of his temporary parking. But when friends come to visit, the playground turns into an original, creative chess board. However, to such a board to decorate the yard with your own hands (photo is presented here), you will have to think about how to make giant chess pieces. Perhaps someone will carve them out of the tree, and someone prefers to cast out of the plaster. And someone will like the idea of sculpting pawns and chess elephants using papier-mache from the paper, soaked in a special solution.

Yard sculptures

Thinking about how to beautifully decorate the yard, many property owners tend to think that street figures are one of the most acceptable options. Often yard sculptures perform not only the decorative role of decorating the landscape, but also bear a practical load. For example, cute dogs, formidable lions and crocodiles, graceful panthers and leopards are wonderful benches. A funny dwarf with an umbrella in his hand will give a shadow on a hot day to those who rest at an artificial pond. A long-legged stork in its beak can hold a lantern that works in the evenings and nights, charging in the afternoon with a solar battery, and a sullen owl with a string in its beak is an exclusive entrance bell.
